Divergence theorem says ${\int }_V\nabla \cdot FdV={\int }_{\partial V}F\cdot ndS$ for the outward normal. Here $\nabla \cdot (x{e}^{-r^2})=(3-2r^2)e^{-r^2}$, so radial integration gives $4\pi a^3{e}^{-a^2}$. On the sphere $F\cdot n=a{e}^{-a^2}$, whose integral is the same $4\pi a^3{e}^{-a^2}$.

$s(t)={\int }^t|\dot{x}(u)|du$, $t=dx/ds$, $\kappa =|dt/ds|$, and $n={\kappa }^{-1}dt/ds$. Differentiating $t\cdot t=1$ proves $t\perp n$. Here $|\dot{x}|=2e^t$ and
